Giros

We first experienced Giros in a bar in Germany then again at a German restaurant in Blandford Forum, Dorset. It is a pitta bread stuffed with tasty strips of meat and (if you want) served with a side salad. I'm not giving quantities, just add as much or as little as you want to eat.

Ingredients

For 1 Batch(es)

Recipe

diced lean pork

olive oil (see note)

chilli flakes, crushed

oregano

paprika

rosemary

marjoram

fresh basil

sliced mushroom

Giros Directions

Mix together the oil, herbs and spices. Add the strips of pork and leave to marinade for a couple of hours or so, or even overnight. Heat a large, non-stick frying pan then tip the pork into the marinade mixture. Sauté on a medium high temperature for a couple of minutes until the pork has browned. Add the mushrooms and sauté until cooked.

Serve hot in Pitta bread.

Note: depending on the quantity of meat, start with just a couple of tablespoons of oil and you can always add more. You are aiming to coat the meat, NOT make a liquid marinade for the meat to sit in.
